Material	Helmet	Chest	Legs	Boots	Toughness
Leather	1	3	2	1	0

Notes

The color property tints the leather armor base. Use this with custom_armor for the worn texture override
All 4 pieces reference the same custom_armor / armor model so they appear as a matching set when worn
For 3D helmet designs, use the Helmet 3D item type instead of regular Armor
The equippable component (Nexo/CraftEngine) is available on MC 1.21.1+
Use the Simple Generator Armor form for a guided, no-YAML experience
